Jadehranan Jahan International Shipping Company
As one of the leading transport companies in Iran, we provide all trucking services to/from Iran. Full Truck Loaded (FTL) and Less Truck Loaded (LTL),
Sea freight is the term used in the world transportation industry. We can call ocean freight as well. Sea freight is one of the transportation modules to carry cargo from one country to another via sea by ship/vessel. We send cargo by sea freight when time is not the issue and you are looking to send heavyweight shipment or bulky items overseas economically. You can send your cargo by sea freight with a few modules as per below;
Full Container Load – FCL
In case you have your own cargo enough to stuff either in one container or more. There are a few types and sizes of container such as 20’DC (20 Feet Dry Container), 40’DC (40 Feet Dry Container), 40’HC (40 Feet Dry High Cub), 45’HC (45 Feet Dry High Cub) , … .
Less Container Load – LCL
In case you do not have enough cargo to stuff in one container alone, so you will send your cargo by LCL. What you have to do is to tender your cargo to freight forwarder. The freight forwarder will consol your cargo with other’s cargo to fill in the container and ship to the same destination. When cargo arrive destination, they will de-consol and release to you back on what you tendered to them at origin. The freight forwarder will charge you base on cubic meter (CBM).
Bulk Cargo
When your cargo is oversize, overweight that could not stuff in container, the freight forwarder will send your cargo by bulk vessel. They won’t stuff in container, but just load it into the vessel. In This case they will charge you base on vessel.
International Air Freight Import/Export
There are several differences between shipping cargo with an Air freight company and Ocean Freight company. As you may know, the main difference is the mode of transportation that is used to move product from the origin point to the final destination.
Shipping companies use containers to stuff freight along the way through their routing from origin to destination. The containers can be from direct customers, freight forwarders, and freight brokerages or logistics companies within their network.
Air carriers use a group of local trucks to pick up and deliver the freight, but utilize a network of airlines (both commercial and cargo) to do the bulk of the freights movement. By comparing the basic transportation difference, you can probably also determine the next main difference in shipping companies against Air Freight companies that would be transit time.
Air carriers can also offer something the shipping carriers cannot, which is next day or next few-day- services from any origin point within the region or any worldwide destination point. Due to the way shipping carriers network their equipment, it would be very difficult for shipping lines to provide next day or next few days services for shipments moving over 5000 Km. Also, air carriers can provide guaranteed delivery dates for next day and 2nd day shipments. This is a very good service that fits a customer’s need to get product to the final destination quickly and on time. This type of service does introduce us to the third main difference in ocean freight against air freight and that is price.
Air lines will provide very quick transit times and can easily guarantee delivery dates, but in comparison to the cost of shipping a product, shipping via air freight can be very expensive. This type of service is not something a customer will use on a regular basis but can be very helpful in a time of need.
The other difference between ocean freight and air freight is how a customer’s price is calculated. Shipping lines take into account the origin and destination and the products total volume 20’DC or 40’DC…and freight class. Air freight calculates rates based on the origin airport code, destination airport code, and the products total weight and dimensions. Freight class is not used to calculate air freight. Air freight rate shipments based on a per KG rate, and based on the greater of either the shipments actual weight or the dimensional weight.
To calculate a products dimensional weight, you will multiply the shipments length, width and height (in centimeter) and then divide the total by 6000. You then would compare that number against the shipments actual weight. The greater amount of the two is what you would use to calculate the total cost.
The thing that Air carriers have in common is the fact that they are renting out space on the aircraft they are moving the product with. If a product has a dimensional weight that is greater than the actual weight, the carrier must charge you base on dimensional weight.
Low cost, being safe and rapid transport can be considered as the most important advantages of rail transport compared to other transport methods. Railroad across the country from south to north, plays an important role in transit, import and export.
